IT'S a scandal that the FA decided to allocate just 25,000 tickets each to Man United and Chelsea fans for this afternoon's Cup Final. That means at least 40,000 people at Wembley are either on freebies, like David Cameron, or on corporate days out where they'll spend more time quaffing champagne than watching the game.

I hope they all have a whale of a time knowing that they've deprived real fans of the chance to cheer on their teams.
